Thanks to Vurt for this one. 16oz can poured into 10oz goblet. Poured an opaque dark yellow color, almost dirty gold, with 1/4 inch of white head that low retention and lacing.

The aroma had a slight peach scent, and no other beer-like aspects. On the tongue, the flavor of watered down peach juice, although a bit stronger than the scent.

The body was thin and light, and had a semi-sweet finish. Drinkability was fine, even if this beer didn't really push my buttons.

Canned 7-12-18. 6.5% abv.

A completely opaque and somewhat muddled vibrant light orange body with lots of particles in suspension. A frothy white foam rests on top providing excellent lacing and retention.

A fruit bowl of aromas with a heavy splash of confectioners sugar. Mostly mango, but the Nelson adds some lovely gooseberry and white wine notes.

The flavor is a bit muddled as well. Fruity, most definitely. Sweet berries meets tropical smoothie, meets bitter citrus rinds. The advertised guava and pineapple additions are apparent, but seem unnecessary, as this hop bill adds plenty on their own.

As expected, this is smooth and creamy. A medium to heavy body, sweet for the most part, with a touch of a bitter finish. Alcohol warmth is detectable.

I'd love to see this beer in a traditional West coast or Northwest package minus the fruit. It's enjoyable don't get me wrong, but as a summer quencher, this bill would be perfect in a crisp and old school IPA format. Cheers.
